Abstract

Energy and economy are directly correlated. Now-a-days the development of a country is measured by the energy consumption rate of that country. Bangladesh's energy infrastructures are quite small, insufficient and poorly managed with per capita energy consumption of 220KWh only. Bangladesh is steadily climbing up the development ladder and industries are shifting towards automation process. Energy and power need to act as a key catalyst in helping Bangladesh in this endeavor. The installed capacity of the power plants of Bangladesh is around 8000MW for supporting the demand of around 7000MW. However due to failure in the proper fuel management in the last few years the whole country is suffering from 1500-1800MW of shortage. In order to cater the growing demand and sustain the development phase it is the high time to think about the underground coal as the ultimate choice. This paper is one such attempt in pointing out the possible energy resources for electricity generation in Bangladesh with the help of scientific analysis and available statistics.

孟加拉国电厂的最终燃料选择:实现国家能源安全的重要举措

能源和经济是直接相关的。如今，一个国家的发展是由这个国家的能源消耗率来衡量的。孟加拉国的能源基础设施相当小，不足，管理不善，人均能源消耗仅为220千瓦时。孟加拉国正在稳步攀登发展阶梯，工业正在转向自动化进程。能源和电力需要成为帮助孟加拉国实现这一目标的关键催化剂。孟加拉国发电厂的装机容量约为8000MW，以支持约7000MW的需求。然而，由于过去几年在适当的燃料管理方面的失败，整个国家正在遭受1500-1800MW的短缺。为了满足日益增长的需求和维持发展阶段，将地下煤作为最终选择是当务之急。本文就是这样一种尝试，在科学分析和现有统计数据的帮助下，指出孟加拉国发电的可能能源资源。
